# DS18B20 high-featured library/driver for Raspberry Pi using the w1_therm kernel driver

**NOTE:  _This is the working version._  Pay no attention to the PyPI version named `DS18B20-driver 1.1.2`.  That version 
is broken (package naming problems that lead to a broken install), and there's no way to delete it.**

Skip to [API documentation](#links)

This module provides a clean and mostly complete (*) API for DS18B20 temperature sensors 
using the w1_therm kernel driver.  It also provides a command line interface for interactive dev/debug.

Supports:
- Reading temperatures
- Bulk parallel conversion of temperatures for all sensors on the bus
- Resolution setting and Alarm thresholds setting in scratchpad
- Setting and measuring actual conversion (temperature measurement) time
- Scratchpad save/restore to/from EEPROM
- Multiple w1 busses

(*) Not supported:
 - Alarm search - I've not found any useful documentation for triggering an alarm search nor reading back 
   the in-alarm sensor list.  I'm happy to add the feature if I only knew how.
 - 'features' register (conversion error check and poll for completion)
 - async_io (just needs development)
 - Other sensor models

Tested on Python 3.9.2 and kernel version 6.1.21-v7+ #1642 SMP Mon Apr  3 17:20:52 BST 2023, and should work on similar kernel versions since about 2020.

Do read the fine [datasheet](https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/DS18B20.pdf).

## Command Line Interface and Demo

Once installed (pip install DS18B20dvr), a cli tool is available.  The cli tool provides some useful debug and configuration features (such as setting and permanently saving 
the resolution setting), and also a few demonstration cases (such as triggering a bulk/parallel conversion on multiple sensors and reading back their values).

```
$ DS18B20cli -h
usage: DS18B20cli [-h] [-m MODE] [-n NAME] [-r RESOLUTION] [-L TL] [-H TH] [-c CONV_TIME] [-v] [-V] [DeviceID]

## A Minimal Example

In its simplest form, to use this library simply declare (instantiate) a sensor using its ID then issue a read_temperature() call.
The cli tool mode 20 demonstrates this:

```
    if args.mode == 20:                     # Minimal example for README
        sensor = DS18B20(args.DeviceID, args.name)
        logging.info (f"Current temperature for sensor {sensor.device_name} / {sensor.device_id}:  {sensor.read_temperature(tempunits='F'):7.3f} F")
```

... And resultant output:

```
$ DS18B20cli 28-0b228004203c --name "My_Sensor" --mode 20
INFO:root:Current temperature for sensor My_Sensor / 28-0b228004203c:   76.212 F
```

<br>

## Useful for debug

Mode 2 calls `read_scratchpad()` which invokes a dump and parse of a sensor's return results register, `w1_slave`:

```
$ DS18B20cli 28-0b228004203c --name "My_Sensor" --mode 2 --verbose
DEBUG:root:28-0b228004203c / My_Sensor - w1_slave file content:

INFO:root:['8b', '01', '3c', '0f', '7f', 'ff', '7f', '10', '6c', ':', 'crc=6c', 'YES']
```

Mode 0 (the default mode) invokes a similar dump for every sensor found on the host, across all w1 busses, and includes conversion time and external power status:

```
$ DS18B20cli
